Angelini Wine features Vineyard of the Month – Palagetto

Our featured Vineyard of the Month resides in Tuscany sprawling over 200 acres of picturesque farmland.  The Azienda Agricola Il Palagetto was founded in 1991 in San Gimignano.  Chosen wine maker and famed oenologist, Tachis, helped to distinguish Palagetto wines with a firm commitment to concentrate on quality wine production. In 2003, a brand new 37,000 square foot, temperature controlled wine cellar was added to further increase the value and selection of the Estate bottled Tuscan wines.

Along with wine, the farm produces olive oil, honey and saffron; all of which are produced using the proper combination of traditional and modern methods.  A bed and breakfast, using restored farmhouses, is operated on the premises and the entire Niccolai family, Fina, Luano and children Sabrina and Simone, are involved in the daily administration of the farm.
